Austin Porcelain veneers

If you live in Austin and have suffered damage to your teeth, you don't have to resign yourself to having imperfect teeth.  Through the magic of cosmetic dentistry and the gifted hands of Dr. Joseph Schmidt, you won't ever have to settle for anything less than perfect teeth while you're in Austin.  Out of all of the different cosmetic surgery procedures that Dr. Schmidt offers, porcelain veneers are among the most popular.

Sometimes called dental veneers or dental porcelain laminates, porcelain veneers is an excellent solution to common dental problems like: replacing lost tooth structure, straightening teeth, changing tooth color, changing tooth shape, and closing teeth spaces.  In this effective cosmetic bonding technique, Dr. Schmidt removes approximately one-half millimeter of enamel from the front surface of the tooth and then exposes the tooth to phosphoric acid.  Once the resin cements, Dr. Schmidt then applies the porcelain veneer to the tooth.

Compared to other types of cosmetic tooth bonding, porcelain veneers offers the most aesthetic advantages.  The porcelain material is able to capture and reflect light, which means that porcelain veneers has the appearance of a natural tooth.  Additionally, as porcelain is a ceramic material, the surface of a porcelain veneer will not pick up permanent stains thus ensuring that the visual attractiveness of a porcelain veneer will sustain for many years.
